DMG MORI USA, INC. CTX GAMMA 3000 TC HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The DMG MORI CTX gamma 3000 TC is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for complex turn-mill operations on large and long workpieces. It accommodates a maximum turning diameter of 27.6 inches (700 mm) and a maximum turning length of 120.1 inches (3,050 mm), supporting bar diameters up to 5 inches (127 mm). The machine features a robust main spindle delivering 67.1 HP and up to 2,500 RPM, with high torque capacity for demanding cutting tasks. The sub spindle operates at speeds up to 20,000 RPM, while the rotary tool spindle reaches 10,000 RPM, enabling simultaneous turning and milling operations with high precision. The CTX gamma 3000 TC utilizes a 3-axis configuration with optional 4-axis capabilities, featuring X, Y, and Z travels of 31.5", 16.5", and 120.1" respectively, all with rapid traverse rates of 1,968 ipm, ensuring efficient material removal and rapid positioning. This machine incorporates advanced thermal stability measures and direct linear scale feedback for precise positional accuracy. Its highly rigid construction supports the integration of a programmable steady rest to control vibrations during machining of long shafts. The modular tool management includes a standard 36-pocket tool magazine, expandable to 180 pockets with optional chain magazines, and supports quick tool changes via TRIFIX precision interfaces. The CTX gamma 3000 TC excels in 5-axis simultaneous machining with a B-axis swivel of ±120°, allowing complex multi-sided machining in one setup. With a sophisticated control system (SIEMENS-based CELOS) and substantial spindle power, it is ideal for aerospace, automotive, and medical manufacturing sectors requiring precise, efficient machining of large-scale components.
